Late Thursday afternoon, after the NJSIAA decided to condense the two-day state championships into a one-day meet, the association announced the revised schedule.
The NJSIAA announced on Thursday morning that because of the smoke from the Canadian wildfires, the state championships would go from a two-day meet to a one-day meet.
The biggest change is the elimination of trials in the 100-meter dash and 110-meter hurdles. These will now be run as finals, with seed times determining who runs in the fastest sections.
Also, there will be no finals in field events.
The meets will still begin at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, with Groups 1 and 4 and Parochial A at Franklin High in Somerset and Groups 2 and 3 and Parochial B at Delsea in Franklinville.
Hopefully, “EliteFeats” timing company will be nowhere near either meet.
